Introduction

Welcome to Christian Mom on Fire! 
I am so glad you are here.  I hope that this blog inspires you to see how Jesus is working in your life.  My focus is to share my experiences in life as a working Christian wife and mother.  I am navigating the world around me and am constantly reminded of how the Lord has a hand in it all.  Motherhood is beautiful but it is also messy and at times really hard.  We are stronger together.  My goal is to be real; sharing the highs and the lows.  I want to share how I am living for Jesus throughout it all, though often stumbling along the way.
I hope this blog can be a blessing in your life.  I hope it encourages you.  God Bless. 




The Lord will Fight for you, You need only be Still
Exodus 14:14

My Middle Child

I find myself mesmerized as I gaze at her sweet face as she snuggles into bed. Hair is a mess and her pjs probably don’t match.   Might even be on backwards, inside out or both.   She has a style all her own.   My middle child.   Did I plan her?   Nope.   Had I followed my plan, I would have missed out on the gift of being her mother.   Lucky for me, God had a different plan.   After I had my first child, I WAS DONE.   To say my pregnancy was challenging is an understatement.   And pregnancy was easy in comparison to my delivery.   Without providing the terrifying details and risking traumatizing new moms to be, I will simply say there was nothing typical about it.   It wasn’t so much that I didn’t want more children, as much as I didn’t want to go through any of that again.   So, I had successfully convinced myself that one child was all I was going to have. Right before Ellyana’s first birthday my hubby approached...

How Valentine's Day has changed

  Our first Valentine’s Day together was sweet. Ten years ago now.  It seems like a lifetime ago. We had a romantic dinner and cute, little, thoughtful gifts for each other.  I still remember picking each individual gift and writing a note to go with each one.  It was all about the two of us and our new and exciting love. The next few years we started this tradition of making dinner at home together.  But it was a pretty elaborate dinner.  There were always gifts and making a pretty big deal about spending the day together.  He was busy trying to make up for all the crappy past Valentine’s Days I had with old boyfriends and I was trying to spoil him.   Things have really changed.  The past several years, I can honestly not remember what either of us has gotten from the other.  I think we haven’t done presents for some years.  We definitely didn’t this year.  Well, actually I told Jay that he got me a Starbucks coffee today...
